1909 Map of Mt. Baker

USGS Topo · Published 1915

About this map

The glacial reaches of Mt Baker and Mt Shuksan dominate this high-country survey, conducted during a period when the timber and mining industries were just beginning to establish a permanent presence in the North Cascades. Along the Nooksak River and Baker River, early outposts like Glacier, Concrete, and Marblemount serve as gateways to the wilderness. The map details a landscape where industrial infrastructure, such as the Excelsior Power Plant and the U S Fish Hatchery near Baker Lake, began to harness the region's natural resources.
